Printed Scrubs — The Range at a Glance
Our patterned scrubs collection spans five main print families — each available across multiple brands and in the full XXS–5XL size run. Whether you need animal print scrubs for a vet clinic, floral scrubs for a GP practice, or Christmas scrubs for the festive season, you'll find the full range here. Every printed style is built on the same clinical fabrics as our solid-colour lines — this is workwear that handles repeated industrial laundering, not novelty fashion.
Printed scrub tops pair with matching or coordinating scrub pants for a complete uniform — selected print designs are also available as matching bottoms in Cherokee and Dickies.

Print Styles — Browse by Category
Not all patterned scrubs are the same — different workplaces and personal styles call for different print families. Here's how our range breaks down.
|
Leopard, paw prints, dogs, cats, koalas — animal print scrubs are consistently the most popular sub-category. Particularly strong in vet nursing, paediatric wards and GP clinics where patients respond well to approachable uniforms. Available across Cherokee and Zoe+Chloe in multiple colourways. |
Floral scrubs range from subtle botanical prints through to bold full-coverage designs. Popular in GP practices, dental clinics, aged care and beauty and laser clinics — settings where a refined, approachable aesthetic is part of the brand. Wink and Cherokee carry the broadest floral selections. |
|
|
Christmas scrubs sell out fast — order early. Our seasonal range runs from traditional festive motifs through to contemporary Australian Christmas designs. Also includes Easter, Halloween and other seasonal releases. These are functional clinical garments, not novelty costume pieces — built on the same platform fabrics as the rest of our patterned scrubs range. |
Geometric & Abstract Prints A more restrained category of patterned scrub tops — geometric patterns, abstract shapes and contemporary graphic designs. Suited to workplaces where bold character prints aren't appropriate but solid colours feel too plain. Cherokee and Zoe+Chloe regularly release new geometric colourways. |
|
|
The broadest category — fun & funky scrubs that don't fit neatly into another print family. Novelty motifs (food, cartoon characters, pop culture references), all-over illustration prints and statement designs. Frequently worn for team-building days, patient engagement in paediatrics and fundraising events. See the full fun scrubs range. |

Who Wears Printed Scrubs?
Printed and patterned scrubs are worn across a wide range of healthcare settings — wherever a friendly, approachable uniform is either permitted or encouraged. Here's how different roles use our printed scrubs range.
|
Paediatric Nurses Printed scrubs are standard in paediatric wards across Australia — animal prints, bright colours and fun motifs reduce anxiety in young patients. Cherokee printed styles in child-friendly designs are the most commonly worn. Most paediatric departments explicitly permit or encourage non-solid uniforms. Pair with women's scrub tops in matching solid bottoms for a complete look. |
GP Practice Staff General practice clinics frequently use printed or patterned scrubs to build a welcoming, less clinical environment. Floral prints, botanical designs and subtle geometric patterns work well in this setting. Practice managers often order in bulk — see our business orders service for bulk printed scrubs with consistent sizing across a team. |
|
|
Dental Nurses & Oral Health Therapists Dental practices increasingly use printed scrubs to soften the clinical environment for nervous patients. Floral and botanical prints are particularly popular in dental settings. See the dental uniforms range for purpose-selected styles. Men's printed tops are also worn by dental nurses and assistants — see men's scrub tops in printed designs. |
Vet Nurses & Veterinary Clinic Staff Paw prints, animal motifs and fun designs are the staple of vet nursing uniforms across Australia. Vet clinics almost universally permit printed scrubs, and patterned styles often feature in practice branding. Our animal print scrubs range is the most popular category among vet nurses. See the full scrubs Australia range for all vet-suitable styles. |
|
|
Aged Care Workers Many aged care facilities actively encourage printed and colourful scrubs as part of a positive, homelike environment philosophy. Floral and seasonal prints are the most common choice among aged care nurses and personal care workers. See the aged care uniforms range for full guidance on appropriate styles. |
Beauty & Laser Clinic Staff Beauty therapists, laser technicians and cosmetic nurses frequently choose printed and patterned scrubs as a more on-brand alternative to solid clinical colours. Floral prints and geometric designs work well in beauty and cosmetic settings. Bulk orders with team embroidery are common for franchise operators such as Laser Clinics and Silk Laser — call 1300 661 475 to discuss options. |

Embroidery on Printed Scrubs
Infectious Clothing Company offers in-house embroidery on all printed and patterned scrub tops — names, job titles and clinic logos added at our Sunshine Coast facility. Embroidery thread is colour-matched for visibility against the base fabric tone of the garment rather than the print pattern. Standard turnaround is 5–7 business days after artwork approval. No outsourcing, no quality-control uncertainty.
For GP practices, dental clinics, vet clinics and aged care groups ordering multiple printed styles with consistent embroidery, our business orders service provides coordinated sizing management, bulk pricing and a dedicated account contact.

Frequently Asked Questions — Printed Scrubs Australia
What are printed scrubs?
Printed scrubs are clinical-grade scrub tops and pants made from the same professional fabrics as solid-colour scrubs, but featuring decorative surface prints — animal prints, floral and botanical patterns, geometric designs, novelty motifs and seasonal themes like Christmas. They are widely worn in paediatrics, GP practices, dental clinics, vet nursing and aged care where a friendlier uniform is appropriate. At Infectious, all patterned scrubs are built on the same clinical fabric platforms as our solid ranges — this is workwear, not costume.
What is the best printed scrub brand in Australia?
Cherokee offers the widest and most frequently updated range of printed scrubs in Australia — available XXS–5XL with regular seasonal releases. Dickies and Wink both carry strong selections. Zoe + Chloe is the specialist print-only brand in the Careismatic portfolio, with the most distinctive designs. The right brand depends on your priorities: Cherokee for range, Dickies for durability, Wink for value, Zoe+Chloe for bold designs. All four are stocked at Infectious as the authorised Australian distributor.
Do printed scrubs come in plus sizes?
Yes. Printed scrubs at Infectious are available from XXS through to 5XL across Cherokee, Dickies, Wink and Zoe+Chloe. Not every specific print is available in every size simultaneously — stock varies by design and season. For current availability in extended sizes, check individual product listings or call 1300 661 475. Browse our full medical scrubs Australia collection and filter by size.
Can printed scrubs be embroidered?
Yes. Infectious Clothing Company offers in-house embroidery on all patterned scrub tops — names, role titles and clinic logos added at our Sunshine Coast facility with a 5–7 business day turnaround after artwork approval. Embroidery thread is colour-matched for visibility against the base fabric tone. Visit our custom embroidery page or call 1300 661 475 for a team order quote.
Are printed scrubs allowed in hospitals?
This depends entirely on your employer's uniform policy. Most public hospital wards in Australia require solid colour scrubs for role-identification purposes — printed and patterned scrubs are generally not permitted in these settings. However, printed scrubs are typically permitted or actively encouraged in paediatric wards, GP practices, dental clinics, veterinary clinics, aged care facilities and private healthcare settings. Always check your workplace uniform policy before ordering. If you need solid-colour medical scrubs Australia-wide, browse our full solid range.
How do you wash printed scrubs?
Machine wash printed scrubs in cold or warm water (30–40°C) on a gentle cycle, turned inside out to protect the print surface. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry — high heat can affect print quality over time. Avoid bleach on printed fabrics. Cherokee Infinity printed styles include Certainty Antimicrobial treatment that remains effective through repeated clinical laundering. Always follow the specific care label on your garment — instructions can vary between brands and fabric blends.
What is the difference between fun scrubs and printed scrubs?
At Infectious, fun scrubs and printed scrubs largely overlap — both describe scrub tops featuring decorative prints rather than solid colours. 'Fun scrubs' is a broader term used by healthcare workers to describe any non-solid uniform, including novelty, seasonal and animal print styles. 'Printed scrubs' is the more precise product category term. Both searches lead to the same core range. See the dedicated fun & funky scrubs collection for styles selected specifically for their personality and visual impact.
Do you stock printed scrub pants as well as printed tops?
Yes — selected print designs are available as matching scrub pants in Cherokee and Dickies. Not every printed top has a matching pant available simultaneously, as pant production runs are smaller than tops. Browse the scrub pants collection and filter by brand to find coordinating bottom styles, or call 1300 661 475 to ask about specific styles.
